DD has been potty training for nearly a year now - she will be 4 in July. Poo is our big problem. She holds onto it and has been on Movicol since Jan. At home she usually waits for her night nappy or poos in her knickers (often small rabit poos) but apparently sometimes poos in the toilet at CM's
CM thinks I should ditch the nappies completely to force her to poo in the toilet but I am very uncertain about this. Since she doesn't poo in the toilet at home I think she may just poo in her knickers constantly - and I also don't think she is ready to be dry at night. OTOH, I can see that if she always knows there will be a nappy, there is really no incentive to poo on the toilet.
My biggest fear about ditching the nappies is that she will get used to pooing in her knickers and that will be a really tough habit to break. At the moment she does it but is not really happy about it.
Any advice or personal experience gratefully received. I really don't know what to do for the best.
